Growing the future together

For PlantLab’s indoor production facility in Amsterdam, we designed and built modular workspace units directly within their agricultural environment. While Agriculture 3.0 – indoor farming based on water, light, and natural nutrients – is clean and highly controlled, the challenge was to integrate workspaces seamlessly into this setting.

By placing the offices inside the production plant itself, we created an environment where R&D teams can work closely to their experiments and where investors can experience the innovation firsthand.

At the heart of the design is a striking wooden table structure that functions both as a communal workspace and as an elevated platform. On top, employees can enjoy moments of leisure or gather for Friday drinks, all while overlooking the impressive Agriculture 3.0 production area.

"Collaborating with the architect and structural engineer on the design of the demountable joints resulted in a simple and enjoyable on-site assembly process."
